Berkshire Poppies Lyrics - Steve Winwood

So many people with nothing to do 

Hundreds of buildings that block out my view 

Watched by a tramp with a hole in his shoe 

Standing alone on the corner 

He's thinking that work is all a big joke 

While he looks in the gutter for something to smoke 

Two hundred kids in one red minimoke 

Scream down the street fully loaded 

Day in the city 

Oh what a pity 

I could be in berkshire where the poppies are so pretty 

I could be in berkshire where the poppies are so pretty 

I wish that I was there 

I wanna make it out of there

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

People like sardines 

Packed in a can 

Waiting for christmas that's made in japan 

And I'm having trouble with my apple flan 

Sat in the cafe on the corner 

Photos 

I walk through the green gates and into the park 

Where murderers crawl after girls in the dark 

Down by the shed I head a remark 

I turned on but no one could hear me
